Rolling Stones: defining moments

Early Stones member Ian Stewart (above far left) had continued to play the
piano on studio recordings and had become the band’s road manager after
leaving the band in 1963. Stewart died of a heart attack in December 1985,
and the band played a private tribute concert for him at London's 100 Club
in February 1986. Richards later wrote in his autobiography: “To me the
Rolling Stones is his band. Without his knowledge and organisation ... we'd
be nowhere."
